In the case of adoption, a business trip support system having a function of transmitting electronic data of a charge section, a trip number, and an expense subject relating to the trip from the travel agency or the like to a credit card company via a computer network is proposed.

The invention according to claim 4 of the present application uses the system for a recreation trip of a member of a business organization instead of or in addition to the business trip described in claim 1, 2, or 3. We propose a business trip support system characterized by this.

[0008] The invention according to claim 5 of the present application further relates to a computer network specified by claim 1, 2, 3 or 4 described above.
A computer-readable recording medium on which a program for realizing the function specified by the above is recorded.

The business trip support system of the present invention having the above-described configuration has the following features, for example, such that the accuracy and convenience can be ensured by its functions and operations. In addition, when the business organization uses this system,
A system use contract must be concluded with a travel agency or the like in advance.

[0010] First, the most suitable traffic route between the departure point and the destination, which the business traveler or the like has conventionally drawn the timetable directly or inquired of the travel agency, and the use service thereof, are as follows.
A server or the like of a business organization (hereinafter also referred to as a "contract corporation") with which a use contract has been concluded (a server on the side of a travel agency or the like may be used by contract or distributed to users in the form of a CD-ROM). ) Can be searched by a simple operation from the electronic timetable database of transportation such as JR, airlines, major private railways, buses and ships registered in advance.
As an example of the electronic timetable database, "J's NAVI" which is copyrighted by Japan Transport Service Co., Ltd. (JTB)
(Jaze Navi) "and other timetable search software
These are collectively referred to as “J's NAVI”), or “O”, which is copyrighted by the US company REED ELSEVIER.
AG FLIGHT DISK "and the like. The data of "J's NAVI" includes regular flights in addition to regular flights of each transportation, and the data is updated every month during the contract period, and each user can browse at any time.
In other words, this "J's NAVI" includes all JR trains including regular trains and special trains, domestic airlines, international airlines arriving and departing from Japan, honor trains of major private railways, long-distance buses,
Access to the airport (limousine bus, etc.) is posted as electronic data. The data such as "J's NAVI" and the station name, airport name, flight number, and accommodation facility name commonly used in the present invention can be read and recognized by the reservation terminal of each transportation and accommodation facility as it is. (If there is no code, for example, "Tokyo" is displayed, it is just a letter, and even if the company documents can be completed, online transportation, accommodation, etc. It is not possible to make a reservation for the facility, and it is necessary for the travel agent or the like who receives the order to perform the replacement work).

[0011] Currently available fare search software (for example, "Ekisutora" from Val Research Institute)
Although it is possible to search for the distance between two points, the standard fare, the fare, and the required time, this system uses the above-mentioned electronic timetable database to search for the specific business trip. It is possible to calculate and display the optimal route, flight, departure time, arrival time, and actual travel expenses limited to the day of travel. Accordingly, travel expenses or transportation expenses can be paid by actual expenses instead of rough estimation as in the conventional case, and a process such as settlement or check of a difference from actual expenses can be eliminated. In addition, it can easily respond to the diversification of fares due to anticipated deregulation.

[0012] By searching a database of accommodation facilities registered in advance on a server or the like of the contract corporation, it is possible to confirm detailed information and the location of the accommodation facility. In the past, it was necessary to obtain brochures and maps directly or from a travel agency, etc., or to access the Internet homepage set up by the accommodation facility.However, this system uses simple operations in a consistent flow before and after. You can search and compare multiple facilities. Examples of the database relating to the accommodation facilities include “Select 3000”, which is copyrighted by JTB, or US-based REED ELS.
"OAG HOTEL D" copyrighted by EVIER
ISK "and the like.

[0013] The personal profile data of the prospective business trip is registered in advance, and the personal profile data is utilized in searching for routes and flights, and for searching for accommodations. By automatically posting to the departure point of the route or registering the request for a non-smoking seat at first, it is possible to secure convenience such as continuously continuing to take a non-smoking seat.

Some business organizations have previously concluded contracts with specific transportation means or accommodation facilities, etc., which stipulate the application of special contract fees. They also hold discount coupons for shareholders and general coupons, or purchase coupons at once to reduce costs. In this system, the contents (amount, validity period, other applicable conditions, etc.) of these special rates and various special discount coupons or coupons (hereinafter collectively referred to as “special discount”) are registered in advance. This can be automatically reflected when searching for routes and flights, searching for accommodation facilities, calculating travel expenses, and the like. In the past, there was an in-house system that could search for special discounts, but selection of routes and used flights,
It could not be reflected automatically when calculating travel expenses.

In this system, the pre-registered business trip rules of the contract corporation (position, required time, grade of available transportation by area, etc.) are automatically checked by this system, and if violated, a warning is issued. Alternatively, guidance is displayed to prompt the user to change the conditions or select a reason for exception processing, and the process cannot proceed unless the processing is performed. The exception processing is finally regarded as valid by the approval of a pre-designated approver, and is ordered from a travel agency or the like. Traditionally, this process has been performed on a manual basis.

The optimal itinerary (route, flight, accommodation facility, etc.) selected based on the pre-registered daily basis of the contract corporation
Is calculated automatically. Conventionally, it is difficult to automate the daily allowance calculation that requires the concept of time, such as additional daily allowance due to return at midnight or additional daily allowance for each accommodation area, so it was calculated by entering the time,
In this system, these are calculated automatically.

Based on the optimal itinerary created by the above process, a contract corporation such as a business trip report or an expense expenditure inquiry (travel expense bill) automatically creates necessary application documents, and via a computer network, Attach approval by a pre-designated approver. This process is based on groupware software (for example, US
If TUS's "NOTES" is installed, data can be exchanged with the software. In the past, there was software that had functions for creating in-house documents and making decisions, but none of them had consistency with the creation and ordering of itineraries before and after it.

The created optimum itinerary is converted into a purchase order to a travel agency or the like by a simple operation, and the operator of the travel agency or the like or a reservation device can determine whether or not a reservation can be made in a short time via a computer network. Inquiry or order such as reservation, change or cancellation can be made. At the same time, it is possible to notify the travel agency of the delivery of the tickets, the payment method, the burden bearer, the cost item, and the like. In the past, there were transportation and lodging facilities that could perform these operations on the Internet homepage, but the same processing could not be performed consistently from internal data, and multiple transportation and lodging facilities required for the business trip There was no mechanism to place orders at the same time with the institution, and no mechanism to incorporate responses into in-house data.

In connection with the present system, when a reservation management system such as a travel agency receives an order e-mail, a reservation ledger is automatically created, and data for transportation or accommodation facilities that require reservation and data necessary for reservation operation. Automatically transfers the personal profile and the data on the handling travel agents to the general reservation terminal. Further, the response obtained by the general reservation terminal is automatically written in the reservation ledger, and at the same time, a reply mail is automatically created and transmitted to the user. By performing these automatic operations instantaneously, the user can perform an operation such as a reservation in a short time from his / her own terminal and know the result. In the prior art, the mail received by an operator such as a travel agency is manually replaced, and thus time loss and mistakes tend to occur.

Further, since a database is automatically created at the same time as making a reservation or issuing a ticket, if a disaster occurs during a business trip, or if a situation arises in which a company or home needs to be contacted urgently, a database is immediately created. The location can be searched. In the past, since all reservations were not managed in a centralized database, operations such as searching for a copy of a reservation arrangement book and extracting records of each reservation system were necessary, which took time.

Also, using consistent data from the order from the contract corporation user, the answer of the reservation, etc., the travel agency creates a billing statement database in accordance with the form of the contract corporation accounting system together with the bill. Can be submitted. As a result, the contracted corporation can compare the contents of the business trip previously applied for on the computer network by the business traveler with the details of the bill from the travel agency without re-inputting the contents of the bill. In addition, by using the database, it is possible to easily perform totaling, performance management, and the like for each expense item and each expense management department.

By introducing the present system to a health insurance union or the like of a contract corporation, the use of the “contract recreation system” planned by the health insurance union or the like can be made online. The contract recreation system is a system in which health insurance unions, etc., designate inns and hotels contracted by a designated travel agency instead of directly managed recreation facilities as contract recreation facilities, and members (business organization members) aim for recreation. This is a mechanism in which subsidies are paid when the facility is used. There are two types of subsidies: direct subsidies, and subsidies that are distributed from users to designated travel agencies in the form of tickets and settled between health insurance unions and travel agencies. Employee welfare services can be considered part of the business of the contracting corporation,
This function of this system is a welfare service support function in the business trip support system. The burden of this work can be significantly reduced compared to the current case of application, approval, and distribution of use tickets. In the future, if a cafeteria plan comparable to the United States is introduced in Japan, if the data on the use of the contracted retreat system is centralized by electronic data, the data on the total benefits will be integrated and managed immediately. Can be.

As described above, the system of the present invention concludes a contract for use of the system with a travel agency or the like prior to use of the system, and then a server (a model in FIG. 1 or FIG. "Company LAN" on the left
Server)), and read and used by a terminal at hand (“in-house terminal” at the lower left in FIG. 1 or FIG. 2) when the user uses it. For the database to be used,
Regardless of whether it is registered in the contracted corporation server (the “in-company LAN server” on the left side in FIG. 1 or 2) according to the contract, or registered in the server of the travel agency or the like (substantially central server in FIG. 1 or 2). good. A personal computer (Fig. 1 or Fig. 2) on which this system operates in sections where business trip procedures are frequently performed, such as secretaries or general affairs.
"In-company terminal" at the lower left of the above). The contracting corporation establishes a centralized service center for the company, deploys a personal computer (the "in-company terminal" in the lower left of Fig. 1 or Fig. 2) on which this system operates at this centralized service center, and places orders at counters and extensions. Usage methods such as receiving and centralized processing are possible.

This system is also compatible with a standard personal computer
S is designed to run on a general computer as shown in FIG. 1 or FIG. 2 by referring to the operation procedure (including flow and screen illustration) in the following embodiment. It is possible to reproduce the system on a network. In FIG. 1, a contract corporation 1 has a first server (in-house LAN & DB server) 2 functioning as a personal profile database and a groupware interface, a business trip application (approval relationship),
In-company terminal 3 having functions such as electronic timetable database search such as "J's NAVI", reservation content input / confirmation, and business trip rule (QC) check, and a second server (WWW content and QC application) A connection gateway server 4 is installed, and a third server (new business trip system server) 6 that functions as a reservation ledger (STERA) database is provided on the travel agency 5 side.
And a management terminal 7 having functions such as schedule table output, reservation / ticketing instruction, settlement, and management report creation, and a fourth server (T / WIN GW) 8. A fourth server 8 is connected to a transportation system-side reservation system via a TRIPS network 10. Necessary files and the like are recorded in each database. The terminal includes a processing device, and a keyboard, a display device such as a CRT, a hard disk, a printer for outputting data, a floppy disk device, a communication modem, and the like are connected to the processing device. As shown in FIG. 2, the functions as the WWW content, the QC application, the personal profile database, and the reservation ledger database may be set in the third server 6. In addition, the system is widely used as a computer-readable recording medium in which a program for realizing the above functions in a computer and a network thereof is recorded.

In the following embodiment, a usage example using a browser is described. However, it is also possible to use the application by activating it from the groupware as described above.

Further, in this system, it is assumed that tickets are issued by a travel agency or the like and delivered to a contract corporation. In the near future, a specific credit card will be used at a station or an airport, etc. By reading the record of the reservation made by the travel agency from the central device of the transportation,
A mechanism to issue tickets on the spot, a notice to the lodging institution by a telegraph device from a travel agency in advance, a local settlement with a pre-registered credit card, a mechanism to not use tickets, Using a dedicated device attached to a personal computer to store it in a smart card (IC card), etc.,
By introducing a system that can use trains, aircraft or hotels directly, etc., it is possible to further enhance convenience and promote labor saving.
